Ill congoquenoe of tbe want ot a party organ in Benton county, the Democrats over there have Authorized tis to publish their official call for pre cinct and county conventions, which we do elsewhere in this issue. Hence the Democracy of that county will pleafte bear in mind that the sevoral Precinct meetings are to be held one week from to-morrow, and the County Conventions op. the Wednesday fol lowing. We earnestly urge upon the Domourats of Benton the importance of attending their primaries. Bon' neglect to give at least one day for the grand old cause. i ; j TUB O.UKHTION Of LOCALITY, We regret much to see the agita tion of the question of locality en tering into the discussion of the eli gibility of our candidate for Con gress. Such a question is, to our mind, more destructive of the peaoe !id unity of a party than almost any other. Local jealousies should never be allowed to enter into the contest, The fitness of the man should be FrUDAY.. 1 made paramount to every other con sideration.. All Oregon is only en titled to one Congressman, and he should not be chosen with a view to represent one especial locality or section to the neglect of others. We don't want an Eastern Oregon man or a Southern Oregon man, or a Wil lamette Vulloy man; but we want an Oregon Representative--one who is broad enough in thought, expansive enough in his views and sufficiently devoid of local prejudices to work ', for the interests of the whole State niul for the general welfare of all our people. And notwithstanding the demands of a few narrow-contracted politicians, we behove that when the Convention meets, on the 29th in stant, there will be groat unanimity iu the choice of the candidate; and whether that choice shall fall upon some citizen of Eastorn Orogon, Southern Oregon, or of the Wilkin ette Valley, it is a choice which will lie determined by some higher and broader consideration than mere ter ritorial lines or sectional predolio- films; by something that will make such limits and prejudices seem quite trivial and irrelevant. Only such consideration of the matter by the Convention and such a choice made a alwve indicated will meet with that hearty and unanimous support of tbe part which is essential to vic tory. : Tliuu let us throw aside all section al bias, discard all local predolio tious, and ask only that the Conven , t on ghe us an honest, capable and ciiudidate, and resolve to rally a one man, from all station of our young commonwealth, to bear him on lo sweeping victory. . - -'?' h Fuou a jjentli man who was ' in at timl n,.-e tit Ui8 Sljiyton celebration lu.it Kitturdiiy vo lnarn there was l.-nffit crowd prt st-ut, and that Hon.

JLanyJDemooriit is disposed to .1 gard our ' coining special Congres sional election in the light of an un important affair,' let him pause and think of the sequel for a moment. Almost immediately after our special eleotion this fall we must fall into line and begin to close up our ranks for the great contests of 1870 our own county elections, the choosing of our State Legislators, the election of a Congressman, the choice of a Unit ed States Senator by our Legislature and tbe great Presidential election of the Centennial year. Does any Dem ocrat suppose that our political ene mies have not been thinking of these important events, or preparing to take advantage of this special elec tion to further their chances for a victory in Oregon? If so he is yery much mistaken. We fully agree with an able Cali fornia cotemporary that it is evident to every close observer of passing events, first, that popular feeling tends toward re-establishing Demo cratic principles, and restoring the Democratic party to power; and sec ond, that in order to maintain that power which they have so long held the Republicans are determined to make an obstinate fight. On the one hand, the next Presidential campaign will be a stern and persistent strug gle on the part of the people, for right: on the other, the campaign will be equally stern and persistent on the part of those now in power, foi wrong. The combat will be terrible the nation wilt be made to rock from center to circumference, by the mighty efforts which will be set on foot by both political factions. We predict that the contest, however hotly waged by the Republican party, will result in victory to Democracy, We can but think that after a fail and dispassionate canvass upon the real issues now upon us, un over whelming majority of the people will prefer Democratic principles. Upon Democratic principles this great Gov ernment was founded, and upon none other can it ever be successfully administered. Precedents innumer able go to prove, beyond question that every departure from these first and best principles can but involve our country in disaster and ruin is now settled, to almost a certainty. with every candid, unprejudiced mind, that the Republican party can not restore tbe true principles of the Government or bring it out of the ruin into which it has descended by reason of corrupt moasuros, born ol that Dartv. Thousands of voters who aoted honestly in supporting that party have come to a realization of this fact, and are even now cast ing about to ascertain soma other ad equate means to the task of political regeneration. At oue time, many honestly looked for and endeavored to obtain a new party that would take the best elements of both tbe old parties and sweep the country But it is now evident that that bubble has burst. There is but one national organization capable of suc cessfully grappling with the ruling power, and that organization is the Democratic party. In New York Virginia, Ohio and other States, this party won decided victorios last Fall, and wrested the sceptre of suprem acy, even in old Massachusetts, from the failing grasp of Republicanism. To expect that party, then, to abate, in favor of Independsutism iB but simple absurdity. The Greeley blun der will not be rcpeuted. The next Presidential campaign will be straight out and out fight between the Democratic and Republican par ties. It will be a contest between the people and the oppressors of the people. The Republicans base all their hopo of sucooss on the corrupt use of money nnd the revival of hatred between seotions. The Dem ocratic party rely on the intelligence and patriotism of the masses, and the soundness of their principles, for victory. Already the tocsin of war has been sounded. Men are ranging themselves either on one side or the other, in accordance with their con formity and interests, When the smoke of the battle is gone, we shall see the Constitution complied with as it should be, and peace and har mony restored to au atllicted people. ULJ-.i.L L J Jl An Eniroa roa Governor, Hon, Wm. Irwin, who was last weok nom inated as the Democratic candidate for Governor of California, has been for years past editor and proprietor of the Vreka futon, the leading Democratic paper of. Northern Cali foruia. He was President of the Senate in the last California Legisla ture, by virtue of which position he became Lieut. Governor on the elec tion of Governor Booth to the U. S. Senate. He is it gentleman of integ rity and ability, and is very popular with his friends Ht home. Our Cal ifornia Democrat-) bave chosen well, and cannot fail of success.

J?ollowiug is the platform jat prinr clpler unanimously adopted," " amid great enthusiasm, by the State Demo cratic Convention of California, as sembled at San Francisco last week: The Democratic party of Califor nia, in State Convention assembled, in compliance with usage, do assert the following principles as the busis of their political ftCtion-nnd pledge the candidates about to be nominated to their hearty support. - We declare: First That we are opposed to tbe uuconstutional inter ference of tlie f ederal Administra tion in the domestic affairs of the States by which one portion of the Union is ground with taxation to keep another portion of the Union in bankruptcy and sorvitude. Second We condemn the Repub lican party not only for its contempt of constitutional obligations, but for its extravagant, partisan and corrupt administration of the Jbederal (iov- ernment, for the. perversion of the functions of the latter to enncn great corporations at the expense of the public, for tue jobbery and frauds which have brought reproach upon Democratic institutions, for the San born and Jayne frauds, for the infa mous Washington King, for the back pay steal, the iniquities of the pro tecture system, the curse of incon vertible paper money, the despotism of the President, ' for its disgraceful diplomatic service and unfit appoint ments, for its attempt to pass an un constitutional force bill, which was fortunately frustrated by the deter mined front of the Democratic mi nority in both Houses of Congress, and for a catalogue of other enormi ties wliicn nave rendered that organ ization offensive even to the mass of those who were once its supporters. ' Third That now as in all past pe riods we are in favor of a strict con duction of the Constitution and against the exercise of doubtful pow ers, in favor of limiting the powers of legislative bodies, in favor of a tariff for revenue only, and a curren cy convertible into gold and silver at the will of the holder, against the profligate and wasteful system of lo cal improvements by the Federal Government, and in favor of reduc ing the expenditures of the State Government, and of the counties and towns, and the salaries of officials, which have been largely increased since the election of 1H71. Fourth That the Bchool system tnd fund of this State are under the guarantee of the Constitution as in 'iolable, and we are opposed to any iiversion of the fund to any purpos es except those ordained by tu Con stitution. Fifth We assert ' the traditional policy of tbt Democratic party in de- hiring it is the right and duty of the Legislature to regulate the cor porations, whether railway, gas, tele graph, water or otherwise; to limit -r 1 iL. ;i i .i . ueir uuurij-8 iu uie interest, oi tue public, and to compel them to serve all citizens, without discrimination. and at reasonable rates, aud that when they refuse to do so. we recoc nize the right and declare the inten (ion of making them do so, and we Mirtner assert it to be tbe duty of the Government to preserve tlio wa ters of cue state for irrigatioa and other public uses instead of permit- tine; mem to be made tbe mesne of extortion nnd monopoly. bixth lhat the .Democratic party has no occasion to make any now de parture or declaration of opposition to the systom of subsidies, when we recall the fact that it is to a Demo cratic State Administration that this Stato owes its delivorsiice from this oppressive, unjust and corrupting system. seventh l hat we are m favor of aalling a Convention of delegnto elec ted by the people to amend the Con stitution of the State, as the only mode of creating a Bystem of gov ernment at once harmonious' and efficient, and are therefore opposed to the amendments to tho Constitution, which are to be submitted to the vote of the people at the ensuing election. Eighth That tho time honored doctrine of locel self-government is sufficient when properly administer ed to afford an effective remedy for the evils now caused by Chinese al- oor and the presence among us of an inferior race, detrimental to our mor al and physical health; that in the interest of all classes in California, especially that of tho white working people, wo demand such amendment to the Burlingauie treaty as shall re duce it to a inero commercial conven tion. Ninth That we condemn the doo- trino whereby the power of tho State to prevent the importation to cir shores of degraded persons for im moral purposes has been domed Tenth That we favor the speedy completion of a transcontinental rail way, on the Thirty-second Parallel, subject to such limitations by the f ederal and state Uovcrnmenls as shall protect the rights of the people, Eleventh That we are in favor of equal taxation, and any departure, from this principle or any system of taxation which imposes a double tax upon the same subject is in violation of the Constitution and unjust to the best interests of Jthe State. Twelfth That all legislation in tended to regulate thesocial habits and customs of tho people, so long; as tnose habits and customs do not in terfere Willi the welfare of society at large, aud ull legislation ot the character known by the general name of. Prohibitory Law is opposed to the principles of the Democratic partVf aud is calculated to promote pretense of social morality, rather than a well founded system ot pub lic order and decency. Thirteenth That we invite tho hearty co-operation of all persons, whatever limy have boon their past political affinities, to unite with us in carrying out t!io priuuples herein enunciated. Fourteenth That we condemn, subversive ot tho rights of the people aud ruiuons to the beHt inter ests of the Slate, the policy of per mitting the lands of tho State to be come a monopoly in the hands of few at the expense of tho many, aud we hereby plodge tho Democratic party to the correction of this giant evil. ThelictMiUlicuu tisir Central Com mittee meets next Wednesday, and tbe Independent Committee meets Friday. EARTHQUAKE IX COLOMBIA.! "":""""'" gitjxty. 7""- Mail advices from ISnrranguilc, In tbe United States of Colombia, bring accounts of a destructive earthquake at Cuenta. The story of the catastrophe is confirmed In all its horrnrand details. A private letter dated Salazar, May 25th, says the numberof deed Is calcu latcd at three-quarters of the entire population. A few families which were saved are now on the outskirts of the city, or what was the city, living on what they csn procure, but they will soon bo obliged to retire, as the putrefaction of tbe dead will not allow them to remain, ft Is heartrending; to see the wounded who cannot remain alive long In their present condition. Four hundred mules were killed In the the streets, and as there is no one to re move them, tbe stench is becoming frightful . The villages of San Cristo bal, Tarlna, Uuasimo, Capacho, San Antonio, Labatera, Han Juan de Urefla, Boslno and San Cairetano are com pletely destn yed. Tbe storehouse of Puerta de Los Caches was sacked and burned by bandits. Another letter says such was the Violence of the shock that not a single house remained standing, and monu meiits in the cemetery were thrown down and many of them removed to a great distance from their original site, In thirty minutes the city of Cuenta was converted Into a mountain of ruius. The horrible blow resulted In the death of more than 10,000, in addition to other thousand who were seriously wounded and bruised. A great number of "haciendas" have been destroyed and hundreds of houses in the country overthrown, leaving people houseless and consigned to poverty. Many trees were torn up and small hills opened like mellons. The cause of the great catastrophe is unknown and the pre cise' place of Its first manifestation. Somi suppose that the volcano of Cho- tera, which was In action In 1848, Is again breaking out, while others say a new volcano has appeared In the bills of Glracha. It Is thought government will appoint a scientific commission to investigate the nature of the catastro phe. , A dispatch to President Perez, from Chlnacota, May 24, says the population of San Jose Rosa no and Sun Cayetno nave (llsappeoreil, and the rest of the department is In ruins. There were more than 4,000 vlctl ma. At Pioche, Nevada, the other day somo ladies expressed a desire to in spect the workings of the Raymond mine, and accordingly were escorted into the lower depths by Mr. An drews, the foreman. After satisfying their curiosity, the'Vj conversation turned upon the means of egress, and the fatigue and danger of climbing the ladders with which the shaft is furnished, whereupon one of the fair visitors said she believod she could climb the ladder herself. After some badinage, Mr. Andrews promised the lady that he Would present her with a handsome silk dress if she climbed from ono of tho levels to another alone, a perpendicular height of 200 feet. The challenge was no sooner made than accepted, and the daunt less lady climbed the ladder for the specified 200 foet, a task that few mon except, miners would dare to un dertake. California journnlism must knock the socks offn the "Oregon style. for we see it announced that owing to the exceeding roughness with which the several political journals down there conduct the present cam paign, Mrs. Laura De Force Gordon bus retired from the editorialship of the Stockton Leader; giving over the quill to a man. Won't Sister Duni way turn up her nose at such femi nine woakness? And is that the way thoso fomnle suflragers are going to present a square, solid and dauntless front to the enemy? Our, indigna tion overcomes us and we refrain from further comment in sheer hu miliation at this sign of weakness on tho part of one who should be so strong. Foreign Postaok. On July 1st the new international postal code went into operation, by which letters weighing 15 grammes, or a little over half an ounce, may .be Bent for five cents to nearly the Whole of Christen dom. With France, the decreased tor to these countries until the same date, January next. But to Ger many, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Turkey, Egypt, Great Britain, Rus sia, Italy, Norway, Sweden and Swit zerland, with all other colonies every where, this low late commenced on the 1st instant, nnd it will doubtless result iu marked increase in tbe number of letters exchanged between iu f ly iiuim nuu un lion. Or Aoe. The San Francisco Ex aminer was 21 years old on the 1st hist. It has always been the leading Democratic paper of the Pacific coast, and during tbe Inst few years, under the loadicg editorship of Col. P. A. Roach, it has taken a prominent po sition in the front rank of the Dem ocratic journals of the Union. We wish it continued success in the fu ture. ' Boi.stkbixo him vp. At a meeting of the members of Plymouth church, hold last Tuesday evening, it was unanimously voted to increase Beech er's salary ,rom $20,000 (the present sum) to $100,000.

He said he didn't like to wipe his mouth on a tombstone, in the ab sence of a nspkin. On next Thursday a campmeeting is to commence right upon the sum mit of the Chehalim mountains, io Yamhill county. Those folks are bound to get as near heaven as possi ble by laud! A Nebraska girl never hollers when a grasshopper begins to hop sround in : the wrong direction. She only leans up against a hitching post, and taking him off her knee she'll throw him into the street and walk on say ing: "That ain't nothing for you to chew, mister hoppergrsss." A Portland rooster who had just recovered from the stomach ache, asked his ma if green apples grew in heaven! The mother gazed on tbe younker sadly tor a moment and then patted him fondly and in quick suc cession several times on the largest part of his pantaloons with her open hand, and then put his hat on his head and took him to tbe children's revival meeting. SCISSOBINGS. Five men were drowned near Prince Edward's Island on the 4th by the up setting of a boat. - The boy murderer, Pomeroy, will be hung, the governor having declined to commute bis sentence.

Illinois was visited with another damaging storm on the 2d, which nearly drowned tbe farmers in several counties, and injured wheat and corn very greatly. A German girl named Lizzie Schmidt aged seventeen years, was outraged and killed near Offallon, Illinois, on Saturday night. A man named Holman was arrested at East St. Louis on sus picion of being the guilty party. Henry Smith, a negro' whe keeps a lodging house at Washington, recently ejected a white man from his house, saying he would accommodate no white person.

President MacMahorr continues his tour through the Inundated dlstriet. Decline in odr Foreign Commerce. There has been an immense falling off in exportation of the products of the United States during the year. According to Government statistics the total exports for the first ten months of this fiscal year amounted in value to $532,500,000, or 141,500, 000 less than during the same time last year. The total imports during the same period fell $35,500,000 be low last yaar when they amounted to $495,500,000 in value; showing the balance of trade considerably against us this year, as oomparred with last, the greater part ot the falling off in exports for the above time, was in cotton, which was $25,000,000 less than last year, or more than 131,000,. 009 pounds; while the exports of wheat and Indian corn decreased $12, 000,000. JotiRitALuui. Howell's forthcoming Newspaper Directory, shows the fail ure of over 1,000 newspapers in this country during the past year, and tbe loss to publishers, subscribers and advertisers, amounts to over $8,000,- 000, the Kepnblio of Kew York alone losing half a million. Among those who went into the newspaper business and lost heavily thereby were 275 merchants and adventurers, 315 school teachers, 57 lawyers, 4 blacksmiths, 33 plasterers, 10 farmers, 200 fanatics of various classes, afflict ed wit) literary lesion, 100 ambitious young men who drew upon their fathers, and thus suddenly exhausted large margins of the parental capital, and six lottery men.
